Question : Global Adress Book STILL will not update

I am running an exchange 2007 server and after 4 days Our Global address book has still not updated on all of our employees outlook clients. We are running in cached mode and I have also forced the update on the server side of the offline address book. I even tried deleted all of the .OAB files on the client computer and then had it download the address book under send and receive and still I see the users that I have deleted appearing and I still cannot see any new users. When I log in through the web mail portion I can see the new users and do not see the deleted users. Please provide a solution as I have 40 + users and it would not be good if I have to go to every workstation to resolve this.

Answer : Global Adress Book STILL will not update

Has it ever worked?
What happened around the time that it stopped working?
Any errors in the event logs around OAB generation?

I presume that you are using Public Folder for OAB distribution? Is that still set in EMC?

When you take the machines out of cached mode you are using a live data lookup, which is why the problem goes away. It is OAB generation that has the issue.
